Stillman dismisses L.C. Cole; Names Teddy Keaton new head football coach

Coach L.C. Cole was 7-15 in two seasons
TUSCALOOSA -  L.C. Cole has been dismissed after two seasons as head football coach at Stillman College. “They were saying they were ready to make a change,” Cole said Wednesday. “That’s all I was informed of. Nothing I could do about it.”

Cole received word of the firing in a meeting on Tuesday with Curtis Campbell, Stillman’s athletics director. “We just thought we needed to go in a new direction,” Campbell said. “Our program wasn’t progressing the way I thought it should be and I just thought it was time to make a change. “I think L.C. is a good coach, but we just felt it was time to make a change at Stillman. I wish L.C. Cole the best and I’m sure he’ll do some great things in the future.”

Two days after dismissing L.C. Cole, the Stillman Tigers have a new football coach. Stillman officials have tapped Teddy Keaton, a 1999 graduate of the college and offensive coordinator at Webber International University in Babson Park, Fla as the new head football coach for the Tigers.

Keaton began his coaching career as an assistant football coach and director of football operation at Stillman. As an assistant coach for six seasons, he served as running backs coach, special teams coach and recruiting coordinator.
